Germany v Algeria

by Timothy Masters

Germany take on Algeria on Monday 30th June, 2014, with kickoff at 21:00. This match is currently being shown LIVE on ITV1.

Algeria probably feel there is a certain lack of respect being shown toward them at this stage, given that they are in the second round where much more illustrious sides are not, but with Germany expected to revert to their full best eleven today it’ll be a massive challenge for the Africans to come through and shock one of the pre-tournament favourites today, and possibly beyond them at this point.

It isn’t easy to score the goals you need, as we’ve seen at times, but Germany did a good job converting dominance into wins in the group, and should be fine.
